SONG LYRICS

Hey It's Gonna Be Ok

Lyrics & music by Johan Christher Schütz

I'm keeping bats up in the belfry, I let them out from time to timeThere's a magpie in the morning that I feed to still my mindYou fill your head with goals and schedules that you know are just in vainWhere you're sitting with your coffee and your Metro, as the seasons seem the same

It's not easy to let goIf your dreams are all you knowIt's pretty hard, but heyIt's gonna be ok

I've seen the light on the horizon, and maybe you could find the way?When the puzzle is complete it makes the monsters go awayWe tell the truth along with tears and break a promise with a kissAll of a sudden you've grown up and start to ask yourself if this is all there is

It's not easy to let go...

I have a globe beside my window, I have the whole world at my handsI often light it up and think of those who never get a chanceSo many people that deserve something more than what they getWe all do the best we can, but sometimes your own wings can't carry you just yet
